All this week, we will be celebrating our amazing district youth who have been impacted by, or experienced, the system of youth incarceration.
This is the newly-established, NOCCCD’s RISE Program inaugural event, and we hope that you will consider attending at least some of the amazing sessions we have planned! We have invited some amazing folks to join us and speak at this event and we would love for you all to show up and show your love and support for our amazing youth!
